7.G.5 Use facts about supplementary, complementary, vertical, and adjacent angles in a multi-step problem to write and solve simple equations for an unknown angle in a figure.
7.W.3. Write narratives to develop real or imagined experiences or events using effective technique, relevant descriptive details, and well-structured event sequences.
a. Engage and orient the reader by establishing a context and point of view and introducing a narrator and/or characters; organize an event sequence that unfolds naturally and logically.
b. Use narrative techniques, such as dialogue, pacing, and description, to develop experiences, events, and/or characters.
c. Use a variety of transition words, phrases, and clauses to convey sequence and signal shifts from one-time frame or setting to another.
Prompt
Ebenezer Scrooge was visted by three ghosts, but you have been visited by four!! The ghosts of supplementary angles, complementary angles, adjacent angles, and vertical angles have come to help you study. Write an imaginative narrative that tells the adventure the ghosts take you on.
Include the definition of each angle pair and give a detailed real world example of each. The real world examples should include values and the solution.
On a separate sheet of paper illustrate the examples and label the angles.
Reflection
I have loved incorporating technology into class and have imagined how I will take what we have learned and use it in the future. I will admit that it has been a challenge. One thing that I have come to realize is that technology and time are not always on the same page. There are many factors that impact a successful technology centered project. It takes time to get everything uploaded and organized. Exploring a new cite takes time and patients. As a teacher I believe I would take the time to walk students through cites step by step. I would also set aside a day for last minute details. It is the fine tuning of a project that is often most complicated. For this project specifically, I will admit that I did not necessarily enjoy it. I do not like the sound of my own voice and so recording was a challenge for me, but one I was able to overcome. I hope anyone who dares to listen to this story enjoys it and learns a thing or two about angles.
